Removes the .next-call-count counter file guard (which fired on clean usage and missed
real incomplete work) and replaces it with a scan of all prior phases for plans without
summaries, unoverridden VERIFICATION.md failures, and phases with CONTEXT.md but no plans.
When gaps are found, shows a structured report with Continue/Stop/Force options; the
Continue path writes a formal 999.x backlog entry and commits it before routing. Clean
projects route silently with no interruption.

Add three hard-stop checks to /gsd-next that prevent blind advancement:
1. Unresolved .continue-here.md checkpoint from a previous session
2. Error/failed state in STATE.md
3. Unresolved FAIL items in VERIFICATION.md
Also add a consecutive-call budget guard that prompts after 6
consecutive /gsd-next calls, preventing runaway automation loops.
All gates are bypassed with --force (prints a one-line warning).
Gates run in order and exit on the first hit to give clear,
actionable diagnostics.
